This Manager/Senior Manager role supports EY’s UKI Technology Consulting practice, focusing on Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) and digital manufacturing transformation. Requirements typically include strong experience with MES platforms, manufacturing operations, systems integration, solution design, and technology-enabled process improvement. Candidates are expected to understand production, quality, supply-chain and plant-floor processes, and ideally have experience with platforms such as Siemens Opcenter, Rockwell FactoryTalk, Dassault Apriso or similar systems. The role also requires consulting, stakeholder-management and leadership skills, including the ability to manage workstreams, develop client relationships, prepare proposals and guide multidisciplinary teams. Experience in regulated manufacturing sectors, project delivery and business development would be advantageous.
EY, formerly Ernst & Young, is a global professional services organisation providing assurance, tax, strategy, transaction and consulting services. Its consulting teams help organisations improve performance, manage risk and adopt new technologies. In Ireland, EY operates across Dublin and other locations, serving clients in industries including financial services, life sciences, manufacturing, government and technology. The firm’s Technology Consulting practice works on areas such as enterprise systems, cloud, cybersecurity, data, digital transformation and Industry 4.0. This MES position sits within that technology-focused environment and is likely to involve advising manufacturing clients on production systems, operational processes, integration and technology roadmaps. EY combines international resources with local market knowledge and offers structured professional development, collaboration across service lines and opportunities to work with major organisations on complex transformation programmes.
Ireland offers strong opportunities in technology consulting, manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, medical devices, financial services and software, especially around Dublin, Cork, Galway and Limerick. The culture is generally friendly, informal and community-oriented, with English widely used in workplaces. Dublin provides the largest concentration of jobs but has a high cost of housing; Cork and Galway can offer a quieter lifestyle while still supporting sizeable technology and life-sciences sectors. Ireland has good public services, attractive countryside and extensive coastal areas, although public transport outside major cities can be limited. Non-EEA citizens normally need an employment permit before starting work. Eligibility depends on the occupation, salary and employer, with Critical Skills or General Employment Permits commonly relevant; family and long-term residence options vary. Candidates should confirm current rules with Ireland’s Department of Enterprise before relocating.
